City okays new fire truck purchase the Lehi Fire Department for providing fire protection in the county. The funds provided for the purchase of the old fire truck was furnished by a bond issue. The bond has been paid off now. One reason the City decided to purchase the new equipment was to keep fire insurance rates in line.

War has been with mankind since the dawn of our species. It seems one of thoseinevitable consequences of cohabitation on this planet. An untold number of mortals have met their fate, usually in the early bloom of manhood, while engaged in conflict over political, religious, or ethnic differences. Few wars have been waged for truly noble purposes, yet none can discount the supreme sacrifice of lost lives, of potential forever forfeited. While war is never welcome, the patriotism of those who answer the call to duty is worthy of the greatest honors we can bestow. Lehi is in the unique position of having one of the few buildings in America dedicated to the glory of the men and women who served in the armed forces of our country. The Lehi Soldiers', Sailors' and Marines' Memorial Building, completed in 1926, was the first municipal facility in. the nation to be built in honor of World War I veterans. Lehi Yesteryears Likeother civic buildings in Lehi's history, the Memorial Building has served a wide variety of public interests. City council meetings, court proceedings, public assemblies, political primaries, mass meetings, elections, and community fairs have been held there. Specific groups or agencies to be quartered in the facility over the years include Lehi City Corporation, Lehi Volunteer Fire Department, Lehi Police Depart- ment, Lehi Carnegie Library, American Legion (Post 19), W.P.A Sewing Center, Alpine School District (school lunch program), Lehi Senior Citizens, Lehi National Guard, Alpine Soil Conservation District, Lehi Garden Club, and local chapters of the Ground Observation Corps, National Rifle Association, and Junior Wildlife Association. The new Memorial Building tenant-to-be, coexisting with the Lhjr Veteran's Council, is the Hutchings Museum which has negotiated a long-terlease with Lehi City Cor- poration, the building's owner. In cooperation with the Veteran's Council, the museum is presently assembling a new exhibit for Memorial Hall in honor of Lehi's military veterans. This area will be an interpretative display of the Indian Wars of the 1850s and 1860s, the Spanish American War, World War I, World War II, the Korean War, the war in Vietnam, and Desert Storm. ' The museum exhibit committee has acquired more than a dozen military uniforms, donated by local veterans and their families, plus a considerable amount of memorabilia, weaponry, maps, photographs, flags, commendations, medals, and iu imilMOTi.iilMiiuiUDMlH X I W mm I t HUM II mi ,- ,- 7 S'J newspaper clippings. The museum's plans are ambitious. Board members anticipate not only a memorable interpretative display, designed by prominent exhibit designer Paul Anderson, but also intend to include a small theatre to view a collection of videos depicting these various wars and their effects on our country. The projected cost of the planned veteran's exhibit is $12,000 to $15,000. A new Vietnam War plaque, plus refurbishment of existing World War, I, World War II, and Korean War bronze tablets alone will cost $6000.
